A packed day of development on my indie game "Equilinox", the nature simulation game that I'm currently developing in Java using OpenGL.
The bug-fixing was a bit dull this week so I thought I'd save all the interesting tasks for the end of the week and have one exciting gamedev-filled day to show you!
Also, thanks to everyone for your feedback about the logos in the last couple of weeks! It's been really useful for me.

Gaming is an industry worth over $100 billion, and shows no signs of slowing down.
This means developers that release a successful game, can make billions from just one launch.
With such a profitable & rapidly growing market, the ones on top are making filthy amounts of money.
In this list we'll be showing you the 5 richest games developers in the world.
We would like to give a big shoutout to viewer AcE x MACHETE for suggesting this video.

5) Activision Blizzard
Activision merged with Vivendi Games back in 2008, and became Activision Blizzard.
Armed with combined powers leading to a number of franchises that made the company one of the major players in the industry.
Their most famous franchise, the Call of Duty series, is perhaps one of the most popular games in the world.
The other big name by Activision Blizzard is World of Warcraft, the most famous role-playing game.
Combine these huge hits and it's no wonder it has a whopping value of $4.85 billion.
4) Sega
Probably most famous for Sonic The Hedgehog, Sega has always been a major player.
In recent times it's fair to say they have been falling a bit behind, so for game development, Sega is now focused on collaborating with other companies.
It is now in partnership with its former competitor Nintendo, and has launched an all new trend of crossover titles, like Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games.
Sonic is still going strong despite being 24 years old, new installments are always being developed, which gives Sega a value of $4.9 billion.
3) Nintendo
Believe it or not Nintendo has been around for 126 years.
When the company started in 1889, it sold & produced handmade hanafuda playing cards.
As times moved on, they have always been in the forefront of interactive entertainment.
Their biggest hit comes in the form of Super Mario, an Italian plumber avoiding mushrooms to save the princess.
Although Mario is 30 years old, he's still one of the biggest video game characters.
Nintendo also own other huge franchises such as Pokémon & The Legend Of Zelda.
When you include the line of consoles Nintendo has produced such as the Nintendo 64, the Gameboy, the Wii & more, its no surprise they are the 3rd richest game company with a value of $6.28 billion.
2) Microsoft Studios
Although Microsoft is considered a baby compared to the old timers like Nintendo, they did go in strong & take over the market.
Most notably they are the company behind the Xbox consoles.
Their most popular game would be the Halo franchise, a first person shooter game which has been a staple of the Xbox since 2001.
Microsoft also have the huge PC gamers market, and the not so huge mobile phone platform.
Combine everything and it's easy to see why Microsoft Studio's is one of the giants, with a value of $12.82 billion.
1) Sony Computer Entertainment
I guess the age old question, PlayStation or Xbox? has been answered.
Sony Computer Entertainment, the company behind the PlayStation consoles is the largest video game developer in the industry.
With hits such as God of War, the adventure epic based on Greek mythology, with 6 sequels, or Gran Turismo, a grand touring style racing game, which is the best-selling franchise by the company, since 1997.
These are just two of the names among many more that have made Sony Computer Entertainment worth $13.4 billion.

Is Game Development Career Viable?
Some people dream of becoming a game developer. And I include myself in this statistic. For a long time, I've dreamed of becoming and working with game development.
For those who don't know, Video game development is the process of creating a video game. Development is undertaken by a game developer, which may range from one person to a large business.
But... Is this a viable career path? Can you actually make money by becoming a game developer? Is the competition high? What should you do in order to become a game developer? How should you start?
I got this question and it says, "Hi John, how's it going? I'm a 19-year-old college student and I'm interested in the gaming industry mostly in programming. I've been doing some basic tutorials for different game engines and languages and I'm not really sure what to do about school. I've been doubting that a degree would be good for me. I recently found block.io and it looks interesting. The android developer option looks cool and it's shorter and less expensive than others. There seems to be lots of boot camps or web development and software engineering but none for game development like working on a PC or consul games either making your own or working with other people. Do you have any advice? Is software engineering and web development a good thing to look into even though it doesn't seem as interesting right now? Thanks for your time."
This is sort of a tough one, right? I mean game development is difficult to get into. Why? Because everyone wants to get in the game development, I mean who wouldn't want to? The only thing I can think of that would be more difficult to get in to besides game development and certain industries, adult industries that we won't name here would probably be game testing. Who wouldn't want to test games, right?
But a game developer it's definitely difficult to break into but you can do it and you can go to school for it. I'm going to give you 2 schools that I've always wanted to attend. One of them-I don't know a lot about these schools but I've heard of them and they're game development schools specifically. One of them is DigiPen so check that one out. The other one is here in-near me in Orlando called Full Sail University. I've heard of them. I've heard really good things. In fact, just a few years ago I was tempted to go get a degree from there just because I wanted to go to the school because it seemed like it would be cool.
I don't know of any boot camps that would actually do game development and I don't know if you really want to. I think if you wanted-I think game development is in depth enough and that you need enough connections that you probably want to go to school to do that.

After two successful Kickstarter funds, interviews were conducted with prominent indie developers within the community. After recording over 300 hours of footage, Swirsky and Pajot decided to cut the movie down to follow the four developers selected. Their reasoning behind this was to show game development in the "past, present and future" tenses through each individual's story.

Synopsis

The film shows the high level of personal expression that typically goes into independent games, through the story of three games: Braid was released in 2008, Super Meat Boy was preparing for its 2011 release, while Fez was struggling with development hell for several years.

Game

A game is structured form of play, usually undertaken for enjoyment and sometimes used as an educational tool. Games are distinct from work, which is usually carried out for remuneration, and from art, which is more often an expression of aesthetic or ideological elements. However, the distinction is not clear-cut, and many games are also considered to be work (such as professional players of spectator sports or games) or art (such as jigsaw puzzles or games involving an artistic layout such as Mahjong, solitaire, or some video games).

NEO Scavenger

NEO Scavenger is a role-playing video game and the first project of the independent developer Blue Bottle Games. The studio is led by Daniel Fedor, a former BioWare employee. In the game, the player controls a character that awakes in a cryogenics laboratory to a ruined, post-apocalyptic world. The immediate objective of the game is to keep the character alive by finding food, clothing, and shelter, and caring for any illnesses that may befall him. Ruined towns can be scavenged for supplies, but doing so may draw the attention of nearby looters and raiders. Fighting for survival includes fending off attackers, and other beasts than may be hiding in the wastes. The developer released a free browser-based demo, and tiered purchase options are available to access the beta and pre-order the final game.

Plot

The game is set in a post-apocalyptic world. In the game, Philip Kindred awakes from a cryosleep pod in a cryogenics lab (pictured), wearing nothing but a surgical smock, and with a hungry creature hiding nearby.

When the dev team invades your Clustertruck Stream

When the dev team invades your Clustertruck Stream

When the dev team invades your Clustertruck Stream

Catch me live at http://twitch.tv/Shafournee ! I stream every Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday from 7pm - 11pm EST!
EDIT: Thanks to everyone who has watched, commented, and followed so far! It means a lot! You guys are awesome!
Click "see more" for an explanation on how the developers did this.
Some people seem confused as to how the developers could've modified the game in the way they did, so I'll try to give a run down of how it worked. Clustertruck has Twitch integration, which is why that bar appears at the top of the stream. Each viewer can vote on one of three options, and one of those options gets picked randomly. Basically, all the game does is look at the Twitch chat, and knows to detect certain words or phrases, and that's why people are able to vote and their votes get detected. So when the developers joined the stream they began typing specific commands in the chat, like commands that turned the truck purple, or changed the gravity. These commands were only used by the developer, and I'd assume they did that by simply telling the code to only acknowledge those lines in Twitch chat if it came from that specific account. I hope that helps clear up some of the confusion.
Buy the game here: http://store.steampowered.com/app/397950/

Indie Game Devlog #4 - The Chat - (Camel Project)

In this week's indie game devlog video, I go on to do a bit of work on the dialogue system, polishing it, and making the interactions seem more intuitive and easy to understand.
Closeups on the talking character was one of the most efficient methods that I have done.

In this video, we are going to have a chat with Michael Lyashenko, founder of Tasharen who created NGUI and Windward.
Michael is going to share his success story. How he became a indie game dev from a full-time game developer at big game companies.

A Day in the Life of an Indie Game Developer

Also, thanks to everyone for your feedback about the logos in the last couple of weeks! It's been really useful for me.

When the dev team invades your Clustertruck Stream

Catch me live at http://twitch.tv/Shafournee ! I stream every Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday from 7pm - 11pm EST!
EDIT: Thanks to everyone who has watched, commented, and followed so far! It means a lot! You guys are awesome!
Click "see more" for an explanation on how the developers did this.
Some people seem confused as to how the developers could've modified the game in the way they did, so I'll try to give a run down of how it worked. Clustertruck has Twitch integration, which is why that bar appears at the top of the stream. Each viewer can vote on one of three options, and one of those options gets picked randomly. Basically, all the game does is look at the Twitch chat, and knows to detect certain words or phrases, and that's why people are able to vote and their votes get detect...

5) Activision Blizzard
Activision merged with Vivendi Games back in 2008, and became Activision Blizzard.
Armed with combined powers leading to a number of franchises that made the company one of the major players in the industry.
Their most famous franchise, the Call of Duty series, is perhaps one of the most popular games in the world.
The other big name by Activision Blizzard is World of Warcraft, the most famous role-playing game.
Combine these huge hits and it's no wonder it has a whopping value of $4.85 billion.
4) Sega
Probably most famous for Sonic The Hedgehog, Sega has always been a major player.
In recent times it's fair to say they have been falling a bit behind, so for game development, Sega is now focused on collaborating with other companies.
It is now in partnership with its former competitor Nintendo, and has launched an all new trend of crossover titles, like Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games.
Sonic is still going strong despite being 24 years old, new installments are always being developed, which gives Sega a value of $4.9 billion.
3) Nintendo
Believe it or not Nintendo has been around for 126 years.
When the company started in 1889, it sold & produced handmade hanafuda playing cards.
As times moved on, they have always been in the forefront of interactive entertainment.
Their biggest hit comes in the form of Super Mario, an Italian plumber avoiding mushrooms to save the princess.
Although Mario is 30 years old, he's still one of the biggest video game characters.
Nintendo also own other huge franchises such as Pokémon & The Legend Of Zelda.
When you include the line of consoles Nintendo has produced such as the Nintendo 64, the Gameboy, the Wii & more, its no surprise they are the 3rd richest game company with a value of $6.28 billion.
2) Microsoft Studios
Although Microsoft is considered a baby compared to the old timers like Nintendo, they did go in strong & take over the market.
Most notably they are the company behind the Xbox consoles.
Their most popular game would be the Halo franchise, a first person shooter game which has been a staple of the Xbox since 2001.
Microsoft also have the huge PC gamers market, and the not so huge mobile phone platform.
Combine everything and it's easy to see why Microsoft Studio's is one of the giants, with a value of $12.82 billion.
1) Sony Computer Entertainment
I guess the age old question, PlayStation or Xbox? has been answered.
Sony Computer Entertainment, the company behind the PlayStation consoles is the largest video game developer in the industry.
With hits such as God of War, the adventure epic based on Greek mythology, with 6 sequels, or Gran Turismo, a grand touring style racing game, which is the best-selling franchise by the company, since 1997.
These are just two of the names among many more that have made Sony Computer Entertainment worth $13.4 billion.

Is Game Development Career Viable?
Some people dream of becoming a game developer. And I include myself in this statistic. For a long time, I've dreamed of becoming and working with game development.
For those who don't know, Video game development is the process of creating a video game. Development is undertaken by a game developer, which may range from one person to a large business.
But... Is this a viable career path? Can you actually make money by becoming a game developer? Is the competition high? What should you do in order to become a game developer? How should you start?
I got this question and it says, "Hi John, how's it going? I'm a 19-year-old college student and I'm interested in the gaming industry mostly in programming. I've been doing some basic tutorials for different game engines and languages and I'm not really sure what to do about school. I've been doubting that a degree would be good for me. I recently found block.io and it looks interesting. The android developer option looks cool and it's shorter and less expensive than others. There seems to be lots of boot camps or web development and software engineering but none for game development like working on a PC or consul games either making your own or working with other people. Do you have any advice? Is software engineering and web development a good thing to look into even though it doesn't seem as interesting right now? Thanks for your time."
This is sort of a tough one, right? I mean game development is difficult to get into. Why? Because everyone wants to get in the game development, I mean who wouldn't want to? The only thing I can think of that would be more difficult to get in to besides game development and certain industries, adult industries that we won't name here would probably be game testing. Who wouldn't want to test games, right?
But a game developer it's definitely difficult to break into but you can do it and you can go to school for it. I'm going to give you 2 schools that I've always wanted to attend. One of them-I don't know a lot about these schools but I've heard of them and they're game development schools specifically. One of them is DigiPen so check that one out. The other one is here in-near me in Orlando called Full Sail University. I've heard of them. I've heard really good things. In fact, just a few years ago I was tempted to go get a degree from there just because I wanted to go to the school because it seemed like it would be cool.
I don't know of any boot camps that would actually do game development and I don't know if you really want to. I think if you wanted-I think game development is in depth enough and that you need enough connections that you probably want to go to school to do that.

Catch me live at http://twitch.tv/Shafournee ! I stream every Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday from 7pm - 11pm EST!
EDIT: Thanks to everyone who has watched, commented, and followed so far! It means a lot! You guys are awesome!
Click "see more" for an explanation on how the developers did this.
Some people seem confused as to how the developers could've modified the game in the way they did, so I'll try to give a run down of how it worked. Clustertruck has Twitch integration, which is why that bar appears at the top of the stream. Each viewer can vote on one of three options, and one of those options gets picked randomly. Basically, all the game does is look at the Twitch chat, and knows to detect certain words or phrases, and that's why people are able to vote and their votes get detected. So when the developers joined the stream they began typing specific commands in the chat, like commands that turned the truck purple, or changed the gravity. These commands were only used by the developer, and I'd assume they did that by simply telling the code to only acknowledge those lines in Twitch chat if it came from that specific account. I hope that helps clear up some of the confusion.

PC Malone grabbed her freshly rolled cigarette, stuck it in her mouth, and lit it. She exhaled blue smoke. Looking through the plumes, she spotted the stack of papers near her desk — all old cases from the force that she’d quit long ago. She began to wonder about her future as a private investigator. Whether the modern world would ever give her more than thankless adultery cases. Emancipation still had a long way to go. More smoke filled her lungs and she sighed another cloud. “Is this life wo...

What's new on The JessaChannel? The premiere livestream of A Case of Distrust with developer Ben Wander, that's what! A Case of Distrust is a narrative mystery from 1924 San Francisco. Play as private investigator PhyllisCadenceMalone in this historical 2D adventure game.
I AWOKE TO HIS STARE...
PC Malone grabbed her freshly rolled cigarette, stuck it in her mouth, and lit it. She exhaled blue smoke. Looking through the plumes, she spotted the stack of papers near her desk — all old cases from the force that she’d quit long ago. She began to wonder about her future as a private investigator. Whether the modern world would ever give her more than thankless adultery cases. Emancipation still had a long way to go. More smoke filled her lungs and she sighed another cloud. “Is this life worth what I’ve given up?”, she wondered. “Maybe I should help Green…”

A Day in the Life of an Indie Game Developer

A packed day of development on my indie game "Equilinox", the nature simulation game that I'm currently developing in Java using OpenGL.
The bug-fixing was a bit dull this week so I thought I'd save all the interesting tasks for the end of the week and have one exciting gamedev-filled day to show you!
Also, thanks to everyone for your feedback about the logos in the last couple of weeks! It's been really useful for me.

5 Richest Game Developers In The World!

Gaming is an industry worth over $100 billion, and shows no signs of slowing down.
This means developers that release a successful game, can make billions from just one launch.
With such a profitable & rapidly growing market, the ones on top are making filthy amounts of money.
In this list we'll be showing you the 5 richest games developers in the world.
We would like to give a big shoutout to viewer AcE x MACHETE for suggesting this video.

5) Activision Blizzard
Activision merged with Vivendi Games back in 2008, and became Activision Blizzard.
Armed with combined powers leading to a number of franchises that made the company one of the major players in the industry.
Their most famous franchise, the Call of Duty series, is perhaps one of the most popular games in the world.
The other big name by Activision Blizzard is World of Warcraft, the most famous role-playing game.
Combine these huge hits and it's no wonder it has a whopping value of $4.85 billion.
4) Sega
Probably most famous for Sonic The Hedgehog, Sega has always been a major player.
In recent times it's fair to say they have been falling a bit behind, so for game development, Sega is now focused on collaborating with other companies.
It is now in partnership with its former competitor Nintendo, and has launched an all new trend of crossover titles, like Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games.
Sonic is still going strong despite being 24 years old, new installments are always being developed, which gives Sega a value of $4.9 billion.
3) Nintendo
Believe it or not Nintendo has been around for 126 years.
When the company started in 1889, it sold & produced handmade hanafuda playing cards.
As times moved on, they have always been in the forefront of interactive entertainment.
Their biggest hit comes in the form of Super Mario, an Italian plumber avoiding mushrooms to save the princess.
Although Mario is 30 years old, he's still one of the biggest video game characters.
Nintendo also own other huge franchises such as Pokémon & The Legend Of Zelda.
When you include the line of consoles Nintendo has produced such as the Nintendo 64, the Gameboy, the Wii & more, its no surprise they are the 3rd richest game company with a value of $6.28 billion.
2) Microsoft Studios
Although Microsoft is considered a baby compared to the old timers like Nintendo, they did go in strong & take over the market.
Most notably they are the company behind the Xbox consoles.
Their most popular game would be the Halo franchise, a first person shooter game which has been a staple of the Xbox since 2001.
Microsoft also have the huge PC gamers market, and the not so huge mobile phone platform.
Combine everything and it's easy to see why Microsoft Studio's is one of the giants, with a value of $12.82 billion.
1) Sony Computer Entertainment
I guess the age old question, PlayStation or Xbox? has been answered.
Sony Computer Entertainment, the company behind the PlayStation consoles is the largest video game developer in the industry.
With hits such as God of War, the adventure epic based on Greek mythology, with 6 sequels, or Gran Turismo, a grand touring style racing game, which is the best-selling franchise by the company, since 1997.
These are just two of the names among many more that have made Sony Computer Entertainment worth $13.4 billion.

Is Game Development Career Viable?
Some people dream of becoming a game developer. And I include myself in this statistic. For a long time, I've dreamed of becoming and working with game development.
For those who don't know, Video game development is the process of creating a video game. Development is undertaken by a game developer, which may range from one person to a large business.
But... Is this a viable career path? Can you actually make money by becoming a game developer? Is the competition high? What should you do in order to become a game developer? How should you start?
I got this question and it says, "Hi John, how's it going? I'm a 19-year-old college student and I'm interested in the gaming industry mostly in programming. I've been doing some basic tutorials for different game engines and languages and I'm not really sure what to do about school. I've been doubting that a degree would be good for me. I recently found block.io and it looks interesting. The android developer option looks cool and it's shorter and less expensive than others. There seems to be lots of boot camps or web development and software engineering but none for game development like working on a PC or consul games either making your own or working with other people. Do you have any advice? Is software engineering and web development a good thing to look into even though it doesn't seem as interesting right now? Thanks for your time."
This is sort of a tough one, right? I mean game development is difficult to get into. Why? Because everyone wants to get in the game development, I mean who wouldn't want to? The only thing I can think of that would be more difficult to get in to besides game development and certain industries, adult industries that we won't name here would probably be game testing. Who wouldn't want to test games, right?
But a game developer it's definitely difficult to break into but you can do it and you can go to school for it. I'm going to give you 2 schools that I've always wanted to attend. One of them-I don't know a lot about these schools but I've heard of them and they're game development schools specifically. One of them is DigiPen so check that one out. The other one is here in-near me in Orlando called Full Sail University. I've heard of them. I've heard really good things. In fact, just a few years ago I was tempted to go get a degree from there just because I wanted to go to the school because it seemed like it would be cool.
I don't know of any boot camps that would actually do game development and I don't know if you really want to. I think if you wanted-I think game development is in depth enough and that you need enough connections that you probably want to go to school to do that.

When the dev team invades your Clustertruck Stream

Catch me live at http://twitch.tv/Shafournee ! I stream every Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday from 7pm - 11pm EST!
EDIT: Thanks to everyone who has watched, commented, and followed so far! It means a lot! You guys are awesome!
Click "see more" for an explanation on how the developers did this.
Some people seem confused as to how the developers could've modified the game in the way they did, so I'll try to give a run down of how it worked. Clustertruck has Twitch integration, which is why that bar appears at the top of the stream. Each viewer can vote on one of three options, and one of those options gets picked randomly. Basically, all the game does is look at the Twitch chat, and knows to detect certain words or phrases, and that's why people are able to vote and their votes get detected. So when the developers joined the stream they began typing specific commands in the chat, like commands that turned the truck purple, or changed the gravity. These commands were only used by the developer, and I'd assume they did that by simply telling the code to only acknowledge those lines in Twitch chat if it came from that specific account. I hope that helps clear up some of the confusion.

Indie Game Devlog #4 - The Chat - (Camel Project)

In this week's indie game devlog video, I go on to do a bit of work on the dialogue system, polishing it, and making the interactions seem more intuitive and easy to understand.
Closeups on the talking character was one of the most efficient methods that I have done.

In this video, we are going to have a chat with Michael Lyashenko, founder of Tasharen who created NGUI and Windward.
Michael is going to share his success story. How he became a indie game dev from a full-time game developer at big game companies.
